[Gaurav Jain]

Hi Team,

I am working on one POC where we need to download all attachment. When I am using POSTMAN i can see the data in beowser. But I am unable to download in my machine. Please let me know How to download the attachment from JIRA

Hi @Gaurav Jain ~ 

You can use the attachment's URL to get the content.

Please try below Rest API :

• GET /rest/api/2/issue/{issueIdOrKey} (you may have to set the fields parameter to a value with contains attachments))
  
  • fields -> attachment[] -> content
• GET /rest/api/2/attachment/{id}:
  • content

Thanks,

RamaRao

Hi

It didnt worked. Do u have any sample code to download the attachment

Hi @Gaurav Jain ~ Suppose if you are ready with the link for your attachment i.e. something like https://domain.com/jira/secure/attachment/1007353/file.zip

then you can use either one of below commands to download the attachment.

curl -L -O -k -u 'user:pass' -X GET https://domain.com/jira/secure/attachment/1007353/file.zip 

wget --user=user --password=pass https://domain.com/jira/secure/attachment/1007353/file.zip

Also please refer the below Jira REST API documentation from Atlassian for further details.

It doesn't work for me if there is a comma(,) in file name. Also it is not working for the video files like mp4.

Can you provide solution for that ?

Regards.
